The CakePHP core team is proud to announce the immediate availability of CakePHP 2.4.6. 2.4.6 is a bugfix release for the 2.4 release branch. A short list of the changes you can expect is:

  • Extract task handles quotes inside validation messages correctly.
  • Model::field() now works with fields translated with TranslateBehavior.
  • Core tests are no longer part of PEAR packages. This solves issues when the pear package is used as a composer dependency, and an incorrect classmap was generated.
  • FormHelper::checkbox() can now generate checkboxes for empty values.
  • Postgres can now convert boolean fields to integer when using SchemaShell.
  • Changes to how ID’s are generated for radio inputs were reverted. These changes caused issues in some applications.
  • API documentation has been improved.
  • Reverse routing for prefixed actions was improved.
  • Temporary associations setup with TranslateBehavior::bindTranslation() are now correctly unbound & restored.
  • Clearing data with MemcacheEngine will now work with greater than 100 slabs.
  • Validation::decimal() now works with localized floats.
  • Invalid data in datetime pickers is now correctly handled.
  • FormHelper::postLink() and FormHelper::postButton() now handle N dimensional data.
